Immerse yourself in the unparalleled artistry of Maurizio Pollini with this 2025 remastered edition of Chopin's Études Op. 10 & 25, pressed on pristine black vinyl.

This release is nothing short of a cultural resurrection. Decades ago, after his triumphant victory at the 1960 International Chopin Piano Competition, Pollini signed a deal with EMI and recorded these remarkable performances. However, the recording of the Études was shelved after Pollini withheld approval for reasons never disclosed. Finally, in 2011, attentive ears were blessed with an edited version, but now, for the first time, we have a freshly remastered edition from the original tapes.

Imagine an 18-year-old pianist whose technical prowess defies his age as he breathes life into works like “Etudes Op. 10, No. 3 in E major” and “Etudes Op. 25, no. 9 in G flat major.” Each note, executed with supernatural precision, reflects both Pollini's razor-sharp technique and his deep sensitivity to Chopin's compositions of genius. This interpretation captivates attention, offering both historical significance and emotional depth that resonates with anyone who engages with its rich textures.

For enthusiasts and collectors, this edition is not just a simple reissue. It’s a masterstroke that transports listeners to a pivotal moment in the history of classical music. An indispensable treasure for those who cherish excellence, it invites a new encounter with Pollini's youthful interpretation of Chopin's timeless masterpieces.
